At the moment, how Couch Potato works, it will look for a certain quality say DVDRip and download it in SAB under the movies category then keep looking for the same film in a HD MKV until it gets released which will also go to the movies category of SAB.
Once the MKV has been found you'll then be able to delete the SD DVDRip as you'll know where they all live. If they are all downloaded to the same folder it'll get confusing (and messy).
At the moment I have a massive collection of movies all on different drives (5x 1TB drives) like -
DVDRip\The Green Mile\The Green Mile.avi
Movies\The Green Mile\The Green Mile.mkv
This'll make 2 entries in XBMC for the same film with different qualities and with a collection like mine, finding files get be time consuming.
At the moment, I run a compare on the folders, if the folder exists twice, I delete the one in the DVDRip folder - it saves going through my huge list in XBMC until I find it twice and working out which one needs to be deleted.
I then just Cleanup my Library (which I do every night).
That all being said, if Couch Potato already removes the existing Avi and replaces it with the MKV, I take the entire statement back and apologies, but I havent seen evidence that it does... yet.
